If it helps, I have partial pidgin support working (I'll attach a debdiff). It implements status changing and indicators for IM messages with buddies.
Ran into two bugs so far which kind of blocked my progress a bit: Can't unload/reload plugin without a crash: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-messages/+bug/1065169 Can't use GdkPixbuf for icons even though they implement GIcon: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686201 The GdkPixbuf serialization code could probably be implemented in indicator-messages if upstream doesn't want it. Doesn't have: - Chat Support (should be similar to IM support but I've never used chats in pidgin) - Buddy Icons because of the bug above - Indicators for conversations that don't have buddies associated (not really sure how that works) - Occasionally loses the first message (maybe related to the last item?) Also a fair bit of debugging code which should probably be removed once the messaging-menu support is complete. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #686201 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686201 ** Patch added: "pidgin-libnotify_partial_messaging_menu_support2.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/liferea/+bug/1040259/+attachment/3407931/+files/pidgin-libnotify_partial_messaging_menu_support2.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to liferea in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040259 Title: FFE: libmessaging-menu transitions for quantal Status in Quassel Irc Client: New Status in Skype-wrapper: In Progress Status in “evolution-indicator” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gm-notify” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “indicator-messages” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “libunity-webapps” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “liferea” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “pidgin-libnotify” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “smuxi” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “telepathy-indicator” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “unity-mail” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xchat-indicator” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gm-notify” source package in Quantal: Triaged Status in “gwibber” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “indicator-messages” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “libunity-webapps” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “liferea” source package in Quantal: Triaged Status in “pidgin-libnotify” source package in Quantal: Triaged Status in “smuxi” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “telepathy-indicator” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “thunderbird” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “unity-mail” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “xchat-indicator” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: indicator-messages got updated, introducing a new libmessaging-menu api (deprecating the old libindicate library) which should make application developper's life easier.
